I opted not to attend the Halloween party I was invited to tonight for personal reasons. But because this holiday cannot go unobserved, my friend and I are going to eat cupcakes and carve a pumpkin tomorrow.

Instead, I am going to light some candles, cuddle up in bed, eat Pad Thai (already acquired), get some work done, do homework, start planning my MoFo. Watch some movies, PPK, read books, etc. Figure out everything about my new BlackBerry. It will be lovely and relaxing. Maybe not incredibly exciting, but the upside is if I busy myself with work this weekend, there'll be less stress in the way of future happiness.

Oh, and I'm wearing leggings as motherforking pants! And I yelled at two cars that almost ran me over on my 4 block walk home.

My partner and I were going to go out for dinner (Sunday nights are date nights for us), but we're worried about leaving the dog alone by herself since there're probably going to be fireworks all night (what's up with fireworks on Halloween? I don't get it.) Instead, we're ordering in some Chinese, renting a scary movie, and pigging out on junk food.

I'm stuck in the house with jaw pain and a migraine. Most of my "going out" friends are Christian and I don't think they really celebrate Halloween so I wouldn't have anyone to play with anyhow. Would have liked to have wrapped up and watched a fireworks display though... but wouldn't have left the hairy weans on their own with so many bangers going off.

I am going to be sitting, drinking tea, and doing homework. Partially because I'm a curmudgeon, but mostly because I have no friends. Except my roommate. Who will fittingly be sitting, drinking tea, and doing homework.

I'm chilling at home, carving my pumpking tonight. I got invited to a huge (and undoubtedly awesome given what I know about the host) party, but I don't have anyone to go to a huge, undoubtedly awesome party with. Or the mental energy, really.

I'm not doing anything Halloweeny tonight, but we had a pumpkin carving party and a bonfire last night, and I spent the morning working on my pumpkin. Tomorrow we're having trick-or-treating for the community kids, and people are doing costumes, but I don't know if I'm dressing up. I'll probably think of something ridiculous at the last minute.

I'm still at school! and probably will be for another 3 hours and 15 minutes. The building closes at 10, so that is when I will leave. Then I will go home and do more homework! I may bake halloween cookies and watch a movie while I do it. I figure I can bring the cookies to my study group tomorrow, since I'll be at school 9am-midnight tomorrow, too...

Apparently Halloween is not a big deal at all in Germany. I asked my host-sister what we were going to do tomorrow and she looked at me like I was crazy and said, "Nothing! Tomorrow's a totally normal day for us."Alrighty, then.

I decided not to go the party I was invited to. Instead, I just made some hot chocolate, I'm under a throw blanket, and I'm about to start re-reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I can't think of a better saturday night.
